Hi, I need a place to do some on-water work on my boat, and woolwich dock don't allow this sort of work any more. Are there any places people would recommend?

That's ' The Godfather's' name.

Yes fully realise that. Their feedback comments indicate they don't operate like the Godfather................................

I've had a negative experience with them when inspecting a yacht for a Seabreezer. Just be aware.

Is that Godfather 1, 2, or 3...was there a Godfather 3 ?...if there wasn't just wait a while, Hollywood ran out of original ideas years ago, most of what they serve up is just a re-hash of old, successful story lines with modern actors inserted to attract a younger audience and so keep the dollars rolling in for the clueless executives. Sorry to appear a little negative, but just ask the Victorians who are in lock-down and are searching around on any of the digital platforms. The only exceptions may be the unsurpassables like Gregory Peck's 'To kill a Mocking Bird' or Marlin Brando's 'Streetcar...' Maybe a new thread needed: Recommendations of honoured, old time classic movies to hunt down in lockdown (which haven't been cheapened by a newer version)
OK shoot me for a partial thread hijack...see you at the OK corral...just don't bring a knife to the gunfight!
